When people think of portable basketball hoops, they usually picture lightweight driveway systems with small backboards and limited performance.
The City Hoops Traveler Basketball Hoop is completely different.
Designed to combine true professional-style gameplay with portability, the Traveler has become one of the most recognized basketball hoops in the City Hoops lineup — used not only by homeowners across North America, but also by major brands, professional organizations, and large-scale public events.
Today, the City Hoops Traveler Basketball Hoop is exclusively available through DIY Court USA with Free Shipping direct to you, where the City Hoops lineup now lives to serve you better and faster than ever.
The Traveler was consistently one of the top installed basketball systems in North America by homeowners, schools, recreation spaces, and event organizations looking for a portable hoop that actually performs like a serious basketball system.
At DIY Court USA, we proudly continue to supply the Traveler Basketball Hoop across the United States.
A Portable Basketball Hoop Built for Serious Performance
Most portable basketball hoops sacrifice performance in order to remain movable.
The City Hoops Traveler was engineered to solve that problem.
It delivers:
- Professional-style gameplay
- Regulation-size backboard options
- Height adjustability
- Portable modular installation
- Commercial-grade appearance
- Serious stability for events and recreation spaces
The result is a basketball hoop that performs far beyond what most people expect from a portable system.
What Makes the City Hoops Traveler Unique?
Regulation Size Basketball Backboard
One of the biggest features separating the Traveler from traditional portable hoops is its full-size backboard option.
Available Backboard Options
Most portable hoops use much smaller recreational backboards, but the Traveler offers a true professional-size playing experience.
This makes it ideal for:
- Competitive basketball
- High-level training
- Brand activations
- Recreation facilities
- Event courts
- Schools and churches
Very few portable basketball systems offer a regulation-size backboard combined with true portability and height adjustability.
That’s one of the reasons the Traveler has become so widely recognized.
Height Adjustable from 6 Feet to Regulation 10 Feet
Another major advantage of the Traveler Basketball Hoop is its wide height adjustment range.
The system adjusts from:
- 6 feet
- All the way to regulation 10 feet
This makes the hoop suitable for:
- Young children
- Family recreation
- Dunk contests
- Skill development
- Competitive play
- Multi-age events
Whether it’s a youth clinic, school event, or professional activation, the Traveler adapts quickly to the environment.
Portable Design with Professional Appearance
The Traveler Hoop uses a portable counterweight enclosure system instead of permanent in-ground installation.
This creates several major advantages:
- No concrete footing required
- Relocatable installation
- Ideal for temporary courts
- Great for modular spaces
- Easier deployment for activations
- Cleaner event flexibility
Unlike traditional portable hoops that often look temporary or recreational, the Traveler maintains a premium and professional appearance suitable for high-profile environments.
This is one of the key reasons brands and organizations continue to choose it for public-facing events.
Used by Major Brands & Organizations
CITY HOOPS Basketball Hoops have been installed not only by homeowners across North America, but also by globally recognized brands and organizations including:
- NBA Organizations
- Adidas
- Canada Goose
- Giants of Africa
- KFC
- Gillette
The Traveler Basketball Hoop has become especially popular for:
- Basketball brand activations
- Pop-up basketball courts
- Corporate events
- Community basketball programs
- Public recreation spaces
- Marketing campaigns
- Touring basketball installations
Its professional appearance and portability make it one of the best basketball systems available for temporary and modular basketball environments.
Featured in High-Profile Activations
The City Hoops Traveler Basketball Hoop has appeared in several major activations and campaigns.
Notably, it was used in:
- Adidas basketball activations
- KFC “Buckets Are Life” activations
- Super Bowl campaign appearances
- Public event basketball installations
Because the hoop combines portability with a true professional playing experience, it works exceptionally well for events where appearance, gameplay, and flexibility all matter equally.
The Traveler is one of the rare basketball systems capable of functioning both as a premium event centerpiece and as a serious basketball hoop for actual gameplay.
Great for Homes, Events & Recreation Spaces
While the Traveler is highly popular for brand activations and commercial environments, it’s also an excellent option for residential basketball setups.
Ideal Applications
Residential Use
- Driveways
- Backyard basketball courts
- Modular recreation spaces
- Luxury home courts
Commercial & Public Use
- Schools
- Recreation facilities
- Church recreation programs
- Community centers
- Pop-up basketball events
- Sponsor activations
- Temporary basketball installations
Very few basketball systems transition this effectively between residential and commercial use.
That flexibility is one of the reasons the Traveler continues to stand out in the basketball equipment industry.
Tempered Glass vs Acrylic Backboards
The Traveler is available with both tempered glass and acrylic backboard options.
Tempered Glass Benefits
- Professional rebound response
- Premium gameplay feel
- Most authentic basketball experience
- Preferred by competitive players
Acrylic Benefits
- Lower weight

- Excellent for high-traffic event environments
- Great visual appearance
Both options provide a professional-size 72" backboard — something extremely rare in portable basketball systems.
